Roasted Garlic Chicken Puffs are a delightful and savory treat that will surely impress your family and friends. Perfect as appetizers or snacks, these puffs combine the rich flavor of roasted garlic with tender chicken, all wrapped in a flaky puff pastry. Here’s how you can make them at home:
Ingredients:
- 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 head of garlic
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 package of puff pastry sheets (thawed)
- 1 egg (beaten, for egg wash)
- Fresh herbs (such as parsley or thyme) for garnish
Instructions:
- Roast the Garlic: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Cut the top off the head of garlic to expose the cloves. Drizzle with olive oil, wrap in foil, and roast for about 30-35 minutes until the cloves are soft and caramelized. Let it cool, then squeeze the roasted garlic out of the skins into a bowl.
- Cook the Chicken: Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. In a skillet over medium heat, cook the chicken until fully cooked, about 6-7 minutes per side. Let it cool, then shred the chicken into small pieces and mix with the roasted garlic.
- Prepare the Puff Pastry: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Roll out the puff pastry sheets on a lightly floured surface and cut them into squares (about 4×4 inches each).
- Assemble the Puffs: Place a spoonful of the chicken and garlic mixture in the center of each puff pastry square. Fold the corners over the filling to form a pouch and press the edges to seal. Brush the tops with beaten egg for a golden finish.
- Bake: Place the puffs on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and puffed.
- Serve: Garnish with fresh herbs and serve warm. These Roasted Garlic Chicken Puffs are perfect for any occasion and are sure to be a hit!
Enjoy these delectable puffs with your loved ones and savor the delicious combination of flavors. Happy cooking!
